Typical SMSF Investments

April 30, 2017June 14, 2017 by Voulla Flaskos

Your self-managed super fund can invest in any type of investment that is permitted by the super law and its trust deed. The range of investments, that you can consider for your SMSF, typically includes anything you can invest in as an individual. Some prime examples are:

A business and business real property – typical examples include a taxi licence, rural property and machinery.

Non-traditional assets such as coins, gold, antiques and art.

For some non-traditional investments, strict rules apply. If you choose to purchase gold and art, then they must be stored in a secure offsite facility, and be adequately insured in the name of the fund.
